Darkness Comes Rattling

From the Librarian: Darkness Comes Rattling is a cooperative board game where players work together to defeat a powerful evil and restore light to the world. As brave warriors, players explore a dangerous world, battle monstrous creatures, and gather powerful artifacts. If you enjoy cooperative gameplay, epic storytelling, and the thrill of overcoming challenging obstacles, Darkness Comes Rattling is the perfect game for you.

From the Publisher: When Mother Moon created the sun, she also inadvertently created something twisted: the celestial snake Darkness.

Darkness knew only bitterness and jealousy, hating those things which it did not have. In its jealousy, it rose up and swallowed the sun, plunging the world into a perpetual twilight. It is now up to the heroes of the Tribes of Man to gather the lost spirit weapons and hunt down the great snake in order to save the sun and their world.

Darkness Comes Rattling is a cooperative board game for 2-6 players that follows the story of the Tribes of Man in their quest to save the world from corruption and Darkness.

Each player will guide a mighty warrior and traverse a world of shadows, spirits, and other dangers as they combat the coming night.

Will you make the ultimate sacrifice? Will you become a mighty warrior, able to fight off corruption? Do you have what it takes to face the Darkness?
